Attorneys Jared and Elizabeth Beck of the DNC Fraud lawsuit publicly announced today via Facebook live stream that they had filed a motion to the court seeking an order of protection. Jared Beck spoke, explaining that the decision was based in part on the unusual deaths of Shawn Lucas, Beranton Whisenant, and Seth Rich, as well as threats and bizarre phone calls the plaintiffs and counsel had received.

Beck said in the video which can be viewed below: “After much consideration and deliberation, we have concluded that it is time to bring these concerns to the court’s attention. Today we filed a motion asking judge William Zloch to provide protection of the plaintiffs, their counsel and their families, as well as all of the witnesses in the DNC Fraud lawsuit. In support of this motion, we have cited the following events: the untimely death of our process server Shawn Lucas, the unsolved murder of DNC employee Seth Rich.”

Beck went on to say, that he believed Mr. Rich might have been a potential witness in this case. He also cited the recent untimely death of attorney Beranton Whisenant in South Florida, as well as recent bizarre and disturbing conduct including threats, that have been directed at plaintiffs, counsel and their employees.

The motion provided via the Beck’s website JamPAC included the declaration of a plaintiff in the suit, who described allegations that her laptop computer had been tampered with, possibly by an individual who had illegally entered her home.

Today’s announcement comes after the Becks had reported receiving a voice-modulated phone ominous phone call whose caller ID number matched that of former DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz’ Aventura office. Disobedient Media reported on this event in addition to further anonymous calls made to the Beck’s pro-counsel Cullin O’brien.

Disobedient Media also noted questions raised by the suit in relation to the death of process server Shawn Lucas, who would have served as a federal witness for the Becks in the litigation process, as well as that of Seth Rich. Many believe that Rich is the individual who passed the DNC Leaks to Wikilkeaks before he was murdered in July last year.

Jared Beck described what he termed “threats” that the attorneys, plaintiffs and their employees had received, before mentioning an offer of protection that had been recently extended by the right-wing group The Oathkeepers.

The Harvard and Yale-educated attorneys litigating the class-action suit’s decision that it is necessary to seek legal protection from the courts is highly significant not only in the current suit but also in regards to the unusual deaths cited by the Becks in their motion. These deaths include that of former DNC staffer Seth Rich. If the court grants their motion, it could characterize the Democratic party establishment leaders as akin to mafia bosses rather than the heads of a political party.
